Designed by Ron Garl and Gary Koch, the Forest Course at The Eagles Golf Club features the signature island-green sixth hole which rivals the famous 17th hole at the TPC at Sawgrass. The two outstanding championship courses at The Eagles Golf Club are kept in "tournament condition" year-round. As its name implies, much of Forest course winds through an impressive pine forest.

Pace of Play

HORRIFIC pace of play. We teed off > 40 minutes past our tee time. Cart wasn’t available for our tee time. Thankfully we had only signed up and paid for 9 holes, because those nine holes took us, a twosome shooting at or just over par on the front 9 > 2.5 hours.

Eagles club Forrest course

Some cool holes but greens are really bad and fairways like hitting off dirt. Some greens have spray paint to cover up the dirt . Staff is very friendly.

Awful pace of play

Somehow they didn’t have enough carts, so everyone’s tee time was delayed by at least an hour. Course books too many tee times too close together which really hurts golfer satisfaction.

It's a beautiful design, the fairways and teeboxes are in good shape, but most of the greens were in rough shape - bare spots, crabgrass, areas of some sort of fungal infection. Pretty disappointing. No rakes for the Sandtraps, esp fairway bunkers.

Overbooked

3 foursomes had tee times within 12 minutes of each other. Lead to a long round, lots of waiting, luckily it was a beautiful day.

Nice Layout but.....

I was a single and booked a 1035 tee time. I got there at 10 and bought a bucket of balls. The starter was working as hard as he could, but it seemed like they were just handing out tee times whether they were available or not. No exaggeration, there were about 12 - 15 carts lined up on the first tee on the Forest course. I got paired with a 3some with a 1055 tee time. We didn't tee off until 1145. We were told that once we tee'd off, we'd get moving along, but we were waiting on every hole which made it about a 5.5 hr round plus the 1.5 hour wait. That's unacceptable. Such a shame, too, cause its a nice course. I won't be going there again.

Decent Course, Unbelievably Slow Pace

I think this was my last round at the Eagles - solid courses and a good price, but this is the third time in a row I have played and have not been close to starting on time.

Had a 1:07 tee time. Didn't get a golf cart until , and didn't tee off until 2:15, and only finished 16 holes until we had to go in at 6:30. Seems like they booked WAY too many tee times and don't have the capability to serve that many people. Will stay away from now on until it gets a little less crowded. Worth it to pay more for a better experience somewhere else. Just a bummer to wait 15-20 minutes at every hole.

Great Course Greens Could Use Some Greens Work

Course was beautiful and well layed out. I did think if there are any complaints at all, that I was a little disappointed in the quality of the greens. Grass was very patchy and inconsistent. For that reason I think the price was a little high compared to others I have played while here on vacation.
